High-End Digital Processing

To meet the needs of the modern guitar player, Blackstar have incorporated a state-of-the-art SHARC processor into the design of their Silverline series of amplifiers.

This processor combines beautifully with the patented TVP Response feature, delivering an array of distinct voices and on-board effects to a high standard.

Amongst these effects you'll find four Modulation types, four Delays, and four Reverbs, each with adjustable parameters for you to fine-tune your sound (see below for more details).

Six Unique Voices

To begin crafting your tone, the Silverline Deluxe features six distinct voicing options. These voices are as follows:

• Clean Warm - Full-bodied, dynamic clean with a looser bass and glassy highs
• Clean Bright - ‘Boutique’, with tighter bass and chiming mids and highs; breaks up when pushed hard
• Crunch - Classic clean break-up to ballsy mid-gain crunch with a looser bass response
• Super Crunch - Higher gain, fatter crunch with a tighter bottom-end
• OD 1 - ‘Hot-rodded’ Master Volume overdrive with medium power amp damping
• OD 2 - Mid boosted, articulate hot-rod overdrive

Choose the voice you want, before fine-tuning with the on-board EQ, and the patented ISF and TVP functions, and you're ready to rock!

Blackstar's Dual-Patent Design

Blackstar breakthrough patented ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) function is a staple feature on their amplifiers, and opens up a huge array of tonal options for your amp.

Using the ISF control you can alter the response of the three control tone stack between the US type response at one end and the UK type response at the other with all the nigh-on infinite tone choices between them.

In addition to the spectacular tone-shaping properties of the patented ISF control, the Blackstar Silverline series also come equipped with the patented TVP Response function.

Patented TVP Response

Thanks to the patented TVP (True Valve Power)-based Response control, you can add the characteristics of your favourite valve amps onto your Silverline Standard's voice.

Whether you want the classic bell-like full-bodied Class A sound of of an EL84, or the rich, warm, 'British' sound of a KT66, this patented control can take you there and beyond.

Recording And Re-Amping

If you want to record directly to your computer without having to use a microphone or audio interface, the Silverline Standard will allow you to via its on-board USB socket.

Thanks to this USB connectivity you can record and even re-amp your signal with ease, laying down those tracks into your DAW of choice with just a few quick clicks.
